This silver medal, created by Hans Jacob Stampfer in 1547, celebrates the birth of Princess Claude of France. It depicts a hand holding a sprig of laurel within a circle of linked chains. The chains are surrounded by the coats of arms of the Swiss cantons that commissioned the medal, which are arranged around the circumference of the medal. This intricate and detailed piece showcases the artistry and skill of the Renaissance medalist, and its historical significance makes it a valuable artifact in the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection.
